When can we expect it and more importantly, what will it cover/correct?

[Dan Lawrence]

134 views and X10 Pro never responded.

The communciations problem between X10 Network Services has been identifed.  The CM15A continues to run all it's timers flawlessly, but AHP still refuses to show the proper status on devices A1, A3, A4 and A6. It properly shows the staus of A2, F1 and F2, B2, B3, B6, B7, B8, B10, B13, O1 and O4.

The modules include lamp, appliance and control modules. All listed modules have timers. 

For the record, when I had Active Pro, the correct status of all modues was always correctly shown.

[X10 Pro]

We're busy on a few other things right now, but we'll have an update to AHP soon. Here's what I have on my list for the update:

• Room & house "All Lights On" doesn't actually respect module type -- sends On commands to all modules
• module display status problems (the ones you mention above)
• time display on picture files is off by an hour when pictures recorded in standard time are viewed during daylight savings
• timestamp in video is wrong (shows GMT instead of local time)
• Delete module with timer doesn't set "need download" flag
• video saving/playback framerate problems (this is the problem that causes short videos)
• Auto-stills stop after some period of time (1-2 hours reported by some customers, less by others)/li]
  [li]Media Viewer: browse back/forward in calendar shows previous month's dates having media, until control closed and re-opened
• Media Viewer: browse month forward from current takes me to January 1 1601, and can't leave. This happens when current month opens but no dates with media are indicated.
• RF On/Off command updates onscreen module even if transceived house code is not set for that code
• Software timer set to run Sep 15 to Apr 15 runs on dates outside range (i.e. Apr 24): tested with a timer for a macro, per customer report of the problem

We also will be adding some great new features to iWitness, along with support for a new camera that will be released soon. And, we're going to start working on a new plug-in -- one you guys have been asking for almost since the beginning. I'll post more information when I can.

Thanks for the update.

• Room & house "All Lights On" doesn't actually respect module type -- sends On commands to all modules

While you are at it could you add support for Room, HouseCode and House "All Lights Off" (not to be confused with "All Units Off")?  I know not all modules support this, but it would still be useful anyway. 

Also, when are we going to see support for other arbitrary powerline commands (especially the old Pre-Set Dim)?

We also will be adding some great new features to iWitness, along with support for a new camera that will be released soon. And, we're going to start working on a new plug-in -- one you guys have been asking for almost since the beginning. I'll post more information when I can.

You have me curious with this one.  Could it be support for 3rd party modules?  Or could it be support for the IR Commander?  Either way I hope they are free plug-ins.

A new camera?
A new plug-in?
How about some more hints if you you're just going to tease us?

I know, I know........
Could it be an X10 Security System Plug-in ??

[Dan Lawrence]

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?

The Shadow Knows!! 

[X10 Pro]

billy has the right idea.

Congradulations billy!

Now any guesses / hints about the new camera?

[Tuicemen]

My guess would be a night cam since many aren't happy with the low light version!

[Dan Lawrence]

Now, the Final Question:   What is the expected release date?

[Dan Lawrence]

Something I've noticed. I'm running 3.203 and I'm noticing that the Activity Monitor is showing "MACRO" for timer events. It's showing RF events correctly and any event done on the command line with ahcmd.exe.

Is this correct, or something else that needs fixing. The only macro i have is a keypress macro that is manually triggered.

[Dan Lawrence]

I hope the update is soon, I'm getting tired of seeing BLUE on A1, A3, A4, and A6 every weekday morning and A1 & A3 twice a weekday.

The timers all work as programmed, the CM15A is happy and other than the communications glitch, AHP gives zero problems.

[Dan Lawrence]

Just noticed:  Where's X10 Pro been?  Hasen't been around for a week or more, so no breaking news.

[X10 Pro]

Nope, no news yet. We had a big prooject here last week that took all my time so I wasn't able to post much. This week I'm going to be at WinHEC so I won't be posting much either. The good news is that new information about Windows Vista and other hardware developments should lead to ideas for new X10 projects. The bad news is that the update will probably take a little longer.
